Hi Abhinav,

Sorry for the delay in reviewing this, Easter break happened in between.

This doesn't feel right. First, vc4_txp should not be aware of the existance of
internal_encoder, that is only for the use of drm_writeback_connector when someone
doesn't pass on an encoder. Second, how do we know someone didn't actually use the
'encoder' pointer from drm_writeback_connector? I think we should be consistent and
only use encoder member.

Best regards,
Liviu
